EPISODE 124
In this episode we focus on the interior of the boat - finishing the engine-access hatch, building bunks and slats, and making corner posts and partitions. We also add more coats of varnish to the hull interior, and even get a visit from our old friend Pancho! Finally, it’s time for me to take a trip back to the UK.

Started at episode 2. From my experience living on an old rotten boat many years, I decided to follow Leo with the expectation of watching someone way over their head floundering with a boat that was impossible to rebuild. Each episode has surpassed my expectations.

At 6:55-11:50: “Two quite unusually shaped corner posts and then a sort of diagonal bulkhead going in between them.” This segment is a master class in woodworking and bench work. It’s great to watch Leo start and finish a task alone in the shop, a master at work.

Hi, my name is Eduardo and I'm in the mission to learn and enjoy from you. I first watched episode where you poured the keel (the second time) and decided to go the the first episode and watch the hole process. After a few weeks of catching up, I'll stick to your channel to lear so many things and humanity. if you ever decide you sail back to the UK passing close to my shores, I'll be lucky and grateful if I get to see your boat and get to know you. So, south not far from shore, via de Panama Canal and then UK. The other routes should follow. Congratulations and admiration for such a commitment and dedication to work (not just "Tally ho", but all that you have shared with the world via your videos.

I'm continuously awed by the amount of work that goes into each individual piece of wood that goes into the boat. I'm an amateur woodworker, whenever I go to short change a piece of wood I'm working on to put into a project I think about this and it pushes me to put in a little more effort.

I remember the first time we saw the inside of the hull after it had been varnished... how beautiful it was then after we'd watched everything that happened before. And now this... amazing the journey we've witnessed. And this episode gives us, once again, the magic of what a shipwright can do with wood. Beautiful work Leo. This really is amazing... and we're along for the ride. Happy, at last, to have become a patron.

[@inyobill]

Parallels what I was thinking watching this vid.

[@moto-lab250]

It just occurred to me that you'll have some GIANT resonant surfaces in those fuel and water tanks. You'll want kilmat for that (there are actually better products, but kilmat is ok). You don't need to completely cover them with it. Like I say, it'll take some experimentation. A good rule of thumb is 50% coverage on large, thin metal panels.

[@marchofstetter8313]

Restoration is the common ingredient. Norm hooked me on it and Leo is an artist!

[@10947792]

I think the scale of this project and the amount of detail packed into a relatively small area make it look like Leo’s work eclipse’s Norm’s. However if you ever watched Norm construct a circular staircase or an eye brow window and its easily seen Norm’s skills are amazing. I think Norm is on par with Leo. I started watching Norm around 1980 on PBS……his career spans decades and he may have just forgotten a thing or two that Leo has yet to learn. Hats off to both craftsman!!!

@@Slimboid just my preference is for the white interior to remain uncluttered, as simple inside as possible, with just navigation instruments, galley etc in as functional a set up as can be achieved.

I have spent most of my life writing computer programs, sailing and building yachts. I have never stopped building yachts. I started with plywood composite, then I think I had a go of several years at ferro cement, I knew everything about it. Then there was cor10 steel plates and this amazing understanding of how you can build a good looking yacht out of plates alone. Now, I never built a yacht in this world, but I still build them, and following this adventure feels good. And I love working with wood, and I can sense the "smell" of it too. Among John Steinbeck's books is one telling about a guy building his yacht (for ever) as he is afraid of actually leaving for the sea. I could imagine that among those guys who loved the work building this yacht there might be some who find sailing it is not all that rewarding after all. You might not believe it but writing computer programs and building anything are not that different mentally as in both cases you build something using rather insignificant parts like an program instruction (a piece of wood) in programming, eventually creating something bigger like say KZbin and my possibility to take part like this. Good luck guys. And remember only an experienced sailor will admit that there was times at sea when he asked himself - "why the hell I am now out here".

[@inyobill]

Reminds me when I was backpacking in the High Sierra. A mate said: "All the fun and enjoyment in backpacking is in the anticipation and memories. Everything in between is just a cruel joke." More than once I was on the trail, thinking to myself: "I am never. Ever. Going to do this again, as long as I live." Then you get into camp, a bit early, on one of those gorgeous Sierra afternoons, and the temperature is perfect, and there is that incomparable light on the mountain peaks, and you go: "Oh, yah, I remember why I do this". Sadly I am past those days, but I have those gorgeous memories.
